The Shed, located a convenient half a block from the Plaza, has been dishing up their take on traditional New Mexican fare since 1960. Set in a historic former home on East Palace Avenue, diners are greeted by a warren of small, charming rooms. The popular eatery is almost always busy. They take chile seriously here and grind their own daily. The menu offers a range of tacos and enchiladas including traditional blue corn enchiladas. Their signature dish: red chile cheese and onion blue corn enchiladas. There's almost always a wait for lunch unless you arrive by 11:30. Enjoy a margarita made with freshly-squeezed lime juice in their bar or browse nearby shops while you wait. Dinner reservations are available. Make them early; weekends fill up quickly.

- Southwestern: "The Shed serves French garlic bread instead of the traditional sopapillas (little fried dough pillows). It's a holdover from their days as a continental restaurant. If you gotta have that sopa, head for their sister restaurant La Choza."
